Aspro Reef is an advanced dive site on the southern coast of Cyprus between Pissouri and Episkopi, reaching a maximum depth of 12 meters. This exposed offshore reef is subject to currents and swell, justifying its advanced rating despite moderate depth. The reef structure consists of rugged limestone formations with channels, small caves, and overhangs that create diverse microhabitats. Dense fish populations include groupers, bream, and large schools of damselfish. The reef's surfaces are richly encrusted with sponges, coralline algae, and sea squirts. Octopus and cuttlefish are frequently encountered, and lucky divers may spot passing sea turtles. Aspro Reef showcases healthy Mediterranean reef ecology at its finest.

Absolutely stunning dive site. The visibility was exceptional and we spotted several species we had never seen before. Will definitely come back.
Great spot for advanced divers. Currents can be tricky but the marine life makes it worth it.
One of the best dive sites in the region. Highly recommended.
